Description

Explore the connection between music and gender in film history with The Gendered Score. Part of the Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series, this book by Heather Laing provides a fresh look at the classical style of film scoring. While many theorists have linked film music to emotion and the feminine, this work investigates how these musical signifiers affect both female and male characterization in 1940s melodrama and the woman's film. This research offers a new benchmark for studying more recent and alternative styles of film scoring. By examining issues of gender and emotion that have previously remained unquestioned, Laing provides a foundation for understanding how music shapes our perception of characters on screen. It is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in film studies, musicology, and the history of cinema.
